ICCRC-CRCIC

The Public – We protect you.

ICCRC governs Canadian Immigration and Citizenship Consultants and International Student Advisors employed in the education sector who provide immigration advice to international students and their dependents.

ICCRC plays an important role in helping the public find regulated professionals, understand their rights and gain the necessary information to help their journey to Canada be a positive one.

Education agents, recruiters and employees at educational institutions, who are paid to provide services to their clients, are prohibited from advising students and faculty concerning immigration applications, such as visas or student and work permits. As a result, they may not explain or encourage a person on their immigration options, complete and submit immigration forms on a client’s behalf, communicate with IRCC on a client’s behalf (except for the direct translation of a client’s written or spoken submissions), represent a client in an immigration application or advertise that they can provide immigration advice.
